El Barrio Lanna — Hotel in Chiang Mai Province

El Barrio

What stood out to me about this hotel was the exceptional customer service of the staff. There were welcome drinks at check in and since we were early for checking in, they held our bags. The rooms were clean and the beds were very comfortable. Good blackout curtains. The entrance to the bedrooms face the outside so you have to be wary at night to make sure you don't let bugs in.

Pros: Daily refills of water bottles, coke products, Thai packaged snacks, and afternoon cookies Good location. 10 min to a night market South. 10 min to the Sunday walking street. 20 min to the Night Bazzar Good shower temperature and pressure 24 hour security guard

Cons: The pool is only in the sun for a small portion of the day so it is ICE cold! The breakfast is terrible. Everything on the order menu was bad. At one point, the wontons in our soup was completely undercooked. The selection offered at the breakfast was also small. There's bread, yogurt, cereal, congee, salad, one Thai dish that changes daily, 3 fruits, and 2 dessert selections. The WiFi is really slow and spotty The short stories that come with the free afternoon snacks are really dark...

During our stay, I had a problem with my reservation at another Thailand hotel. I used their office phone (as well as the front staff's personal phone) on multiple occasions. The staff went out of their way to help translate and attempt to solve my problem. I appreciated their generosity! Overall, the stay was comfortable and we had a...

El Barrio Lanna is far more beautiful than the pictures show! We were very pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The pool is large, clean and great for lounging, especially in the early afternoon, when the water is warmest. We stayed here for one night prior to and one night following our Mae Hong Son motorbike loop, and it was conveniently located for visiting bike rental shops (7 min walk), visiting the night market (20 min walk), and a variety of restaurants.

One our first night, we booked 2 Lanna Standard Rooms and 1 Lanna Family Room; one our second night, we booked 4 Lanna Standard Rooms. The standard rooms were spacious, with among the most comfortable beds we had throughout our trip. The family room felt a little more cramped, but did have the addition of a soaking tub in the bathroom.

We left the majority of our luggage at the hotel during the motorbike loop for a small fee (150 THB per bag), and they were safely returned to our rooms when we checked back in.

Breakfast was available for a fee (150 THB), although hours were relatively limited. They were able to fill our water bottles as well before we headed out.

We arranged transportation from the airport with the hotel. I would say that this was unnecessary, as Chiang Mai airport is very small and you are easily able to call a grab.

There are a good amount of biting insects/mosquitos near the pool, and one of our bedrooms (202) had an...
